During this thesis, we have worked on the synthesis and characterization of new compounds using the porphyrin macrocycle as a starting material. The aim, after synthesis, is to study the photophysical properties of these new molecules. A general bibliographic study was presented followed by introducing the synthetic methods of porphyrins and characterization means. Then, fluorene was considered to be an attracting unit due to its interesting photophysical properties: acting as efficient antennae for collecting light. First, we have presented the synthesis of porphyrin dendrimers having fluorenyl arms of different generations. That is to test the effect of number of fluorenes on the photophysical properties. Another way is to connect the fluorenes directly to the porphyrin core by synthesizing porphyrin dimer and trimer. We have also detailed the synthesis and characterization of a new family of porphyrin organometallic assemblies possessing ruthenium and iron moieties. In addition, a new organometallic porphyrin dendrimer bearing twelve ruthenium species was reported as well. These organometallic porphyrins are of interest in the third order of Nonlinear Optics (NLO). In the last chapter of this thesis we showed an example of application of porphyrin chemistry. We reported the elaboration of a new organic light emitting Diode (OLED) using these new porphyrins that emits in the red region.
